Freehold, NJ, March 18, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Dr. Manuel T. Banzon, a board-certified fellowship-trained sports medicine orthopedic surgeon at Advanced Orthopedics and Sports Medicine Institute (AOSMI), Freehold and Monroe townships, New Jersey, has just performed a new orthopedic knee replacement procedure on three patients. According to a representative from the manufacturer, DePuy Orthopaedics, division of Johnson & Johnson, Dr. Banzon is only the second surgeon in New Jersey to perform the procedure on private patients.
AOSMI provides a range of services, including sports medicine, joint replacement, fracture care, spine care, work injury care, hand and wrist care, physiatry, foot and ankle care, and osteoporosis care to the residents of Freehold and Monroe Townships and surrounding towns in Monmouth and Middlesex Counties.
The new process Dr. Banzon utilized, CPI (Customized Patient Instruments), eliminates the use of the computer in the operating room. Before any surgery, a CT scan of the patient’s hip, knee, and ankle on the same side is obtained and sent electronically sent to the manufacturer for processing. Once a 3-dimensional match of the natural anatomy of the patient’s knee is created, a cutting guide is then made, shaping it to fit precisely to the bone.
The customized cutting guide is sent to the hospital prior to surgery, already sterilized. At the time of surgery, the guide is used to make the cuts and implant the prosthesis. This eliminates the need to use the computer in the operating room.
AOSMI’s Dr. Banzon says, “This simplifies the procedure, cuts operating time, and creates excellent mechanical alignment and balance for every patient. This technological innovation also means surgeons can offer an individualized replacement knee that is customized specifically for every patient.”
